Michael Genet began painting for Reaper in 2002 when he was snatched up by Reaper Founder Ed Pugh. Since then, Michael has painted a multitude of minis for Reaper's ads, data cards, galleries and display cabinets! While Michael won't tell us exactly how long he's been painting miniatures, we know his first RPG character was painted before several of our painters were even born. Michael's figure painting started with role-playing characters, but he's also got an extensive background in historical figure painting and gaming (unique among our instructors). This has given him a well-rounded education in how painting and color theory changes in application from small to large scale models. He has been an instructor at every ReaperCon since they began in 2004. read more
